Chapter 778
Charles still wanted to persuade him, but Cedrickhad already disappeared from sight. Helplessly he sighed and
notified the Deputy CEO to preside over the meeting on Cedrick's behalf. Every time something related to Catelyn
happened, Cedrick would stay calm. Even if the young masters made a fuss, he would never be that anxious.
Shoal Villa, as Joanne said, was huge, and there were a lot of rooms.
Edwin seldom came home, and when he did, the purpose was to have sex with Joanne. That was why Edwin never
came back once during Joanne's period.
Although Joanne did not know what happened between Cedrick and Catelyn, she still cared for her in every possible
way, took her to the bedroom, and prepared daily washing supplies for her.

Guy Edwin?" Catelyn heard how Joanne made fun of Edwin by giving him such a funny nickname, still, she could not
find it funny as she just sat on the sofa dumbly and tucked her knees with her hands.
"Wait here for a while. I'll tell Bad Guy Edwin that you're here," said Joanne before she ran out of the room. It just
took her three seconds to run back and exclaim, "Oops! Cat, it's not Bad Guy Edwin who came back. It's Master
Cedrick. Hurry up and hide. I'll let the maid stop him..."
Catelyn was in a daze just now, but then she regained consciousness when she heard those words. She knew that
Cedrick did not get rid of the two bodyguards, so he found her whereabouts with ease. If she had chosen to return
to Ocean Path Residence that night, she would have already been tied up and brought back by him.
"Thank you, Joanne."
"You mustn't come out!" Joanne warned anxiously and ran downstairs.
Cedrick was confronting several maids in the hall downstairs. His face was ashen, and that exuded a fierce aura,
which made the maids tremble. Joanne was also frightened by his look, "G...Good evening, Master Cedrick. Edwin
isn't here. You can go to Eclipse Entertainment if you want to find him—"
"Get Catelyn down." Cedrick did not want to waste time with her. Joanne rolled her eyes and moved her shoulders
back "Hmm, I didn't know Cat was at my house all this while."
"On the count of three, if you don't hand her over, then don't blame me for breaking in."
Joanne did not dare to look at Cedrick's cold eyes, but she roared back with a feigned arrogance, "I said Cat isn't
here! There's no point in threatening me. I am Missus Atherton now, so if you insist on making a fuss here, I will
have the bodyguard throw you out! Don't mess with me! I'm on my period now, and I really want to dump all my
anger!"
Meanwhile, the bodyguards beside her were confused. If Missus Atherton ordered, should they get Master Cedrick

Cedrick sneered. Disdain flashed across his eyes. He passed her and the bodyguards and went straight upstairs.
Joanne's eyes widened. "Stop! You—"
"What's happening today? My house suddenly became so lively?" Abruptly, a playful voice came from the door, and
it was Edwin who came back. Following his arrival, the bodyguards in the villa all bent down to greet him.
Joanne was a little relieved when she saw him. she started complaining about Cedrick before Cedrick said anything.
"You came back just in time. Master Cedrick was trying to kill me!" While on his way back, Edwin had heard about
Catelyn's matter from his bodyguard. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Cedrick. "If she wanted to see you, she
would have come down a long time ago. If you push too hard, it may not end up good."
"Even the death sentence has an announcement beforehand. I can't accept her leaving without saying goodbye. I
must see Catelyn today. You better not be in my way."
